Looks like a mismatch on paper
A sweep would be very satisfying. All the elite teams in the AL seem to be picking up their games against the shitty teams, Sox need to continue the same.
yesterday's game looked like a mismatch as well
but in reverse, as does today’s min-oak game, and hopefully that game will turn out like yesterday’s game for us and the sox game today will not turn out that way, you know, not not in reverse.
huh? what? anyway, i think i’ll just stick to my favorite words of wisdom from hawk: it’s like a double-edged positive sword.
brian anderson would've caught that...
Wind blowing in from CF at 10-15 MPH
May help Gavin keep in the park, and may hurt the Knuckle baller (having no resistance).
In two weeks they will win 7 or 8 in a row and you all will have 10 inch boners.
Any wind can make a knuckle ball do crazy things.

pretty sure it was Wilbur who said he needed to pitch into the wind for best effect
whatever.
In two weeks they will win 7 or 8 in a row and you all will have 10 inch boners.
Did the Twinks win yet?
In two weeks they will win 7 or 8 in a row and you all will have 10 inch boners.
oakland up 1-0 in the first
lots of pitches for liriano. error by punto.
brian anderson would've caught that...
and an RBI single from Cust
In two weeks they will win 7 or 8 in a row and you all will have 10 inch boners.
Fucking Twins already tied it up in the bottom of the 1st inning...
on 2 hits and a walk. Morneau knocked in Span with an RBI single.
1-1 tie.
"god, you’re fucking stupid."
-- Larry
The A's have always been terrible against the Twins.
Like in 2003, where they went 5-4 against the White Sox and 1-8 against the Twins. That’s four games in the standings. Guess how many games the Twins won the division by?
Stupid A’s.

That's what happens when you spit the bit at Oakland so often...
Nice to see that change this season. Still shoulda been a sweep though.

So is there a reason why Dye is out?
He ios 6-10 with 2 HR vs. Dickey, and I think he also dominates in day games.

new sig
Uribe whispered, "My precious child, I love you and will never leave you, never, ever, during your trials and testings. When you saw only one set of footprints, It was then that I carried you."
both kong and swish have elevating their offensive play in august
even if the addition of griffey is head scratching at best, i wonder if kdub was sending a subtle message to those two to pick up down the stretch.
by onlysoxfaninboston on Aug 20, 2008 2:06 PM CDT reply actions
I don't believe in that kind of thing very much
But it couldn’t have hurt. One thing that the Griffey trade was supposed to do at OPTIMAL BEST was provide a powerful LHP to rest Kong and Dye and Thome with.
Today is OPTIMAL BEST, hopefully this continues going forward.
I can't keep up with the scoring
Every time I glance at gameday there’s a new scoring play.
Coffee is for closers.
I just looked at the score for the 1st time - Holy Hell
